For a virtual library, Mike, you might want to try
http://www.netlibrary.com/
It's actually quite a new endeavor in my hometown, Boulder, Colorado!
Their rates are very reasonable, and I believe they do use a PDF format.
A word to them at this point when they are still very new that biz books
are in demand would be terrific for all of us!
All the best, Emily
